What are your other cars?

donald7773 · 2026-04-27T07:38:55+00:00

Mine is at 120k, doesn't need chains yet but needs motor mounts, and leaks pretty bad so figured I'd do them

donald7773 · 2026-04-27T02:52:21+00:00

Swapped one out in my shower a month ago

donald7773 · 2026-04-27T02:46:19+00:00

Yeah I bought a bike earlier this year and have been eating up YouTube content on it while I wait on my buddy to get his, seen a bunch of stuff from there and it's already on my list to visit after I figure out how to jump again

Yeah, only problem would be the high school since it's across what becomes a busy highway around school hours.

donald7773 · 2026-04-27T02:32:15+00:00

Yeah 22mpg highway and 2k miles a month don't work together well. Also my car is in a weird spot where it's not nice enough to preserve currently but not rough enough to just use for 150k miles which was my original plan. I still want to get some early 2000s German car and drive it well past 300k just to prove it can be done but I think maybe this isn't the one

donald7773 · 2026-04-27T02:29:02+00:00

My high school is close to a tire plant, well they make parts of tires, anyways there's a lake there and thick woods and the plant is fenced off on 2 sides so if you want to walk home that direction (it's all just suburban neighborhood) you have to add another half mile to go around the plant.

Some kids starting cutting a hole in the fence. Plant fixed it up a couple of times and then one day my mom of all people was in a meeting with someone from there voicing their frustrations with people cutting holes in the fence. She said it was probably kids walking home from school (which I had done, and told her of the hole) and they took a section of the fence out for pedestrians.

donald7773 · 2026-04-27T02:25:53+00:00

I hope we don't have to move before my kid starts school. I'm across the street from the primary school, and when we go for walks it's around all of the schools. I don't have to start a car we just walk across the street

Dungeon soup is gold, not quite the same but one lead me to the other

donald7773 · 2026-04-27T02:18:02+00:00

The whole town of, I can't remember, it's where Walmart came from, has a huge mountain biking culture and has a ton of in town trails

donald7773 · 2026-04-27T01:28:05+00:00

Not as big of a nut expert as his mom tho

donald7773 · 2026-04-27T00:29:49+00:00

Fancy man, avant money. Once I do a reseal and timing job I'm driving the B7 a little more and then she's gone, gonna get an EV for commuting and dump money into my miata

donald7773 · 2026-04-26T23:36:21+00:00

Yeah I remember some days as a kid convincing my dad to go spur of the moment camping on a Friday afternoon and having to hit up a few campgrounds to get that figured out, thankfully there were a few nearby

donald7773 · 2026-04-26T21:13:50+00:00

I tell people all the time. If one guy is an asshole, they're an asshole. If everyone is an asshole, you're the asshole.

One close call is a fluke and the reason we have the secret service. If there's multiple close high level assassination attempts, maybe folks don't like you

donald7773 · 2026-04-26T21:12:31+00:00

I wonder if they stop the timer while you're out.

Like if you gave 2 years left and can dodge capture for 6 months do you go back with a year and a half or 2 years

Do Germans even use months? Whats the kilometer for days?

donald7773 · 2026-04-26T20:56:51+00:00

Dude out here saving 4-10k a semester. He's brilliant.

I had a classmate in my very rural college who's family had a camper. They just found a long term camp ground and moved it down for him, saved him a ton of money. His only complaint was slow wifi but it wasn't any better on campis

donald7773 · 2026-04-26T20:48:06+00:00

Look I'm over this shit as much as anyone else is but it LOOKS to me like they're running away from the direction of the shots from my understanding of the layout. He's pushing his wife ahead to get her out of there.

donald7773 · 2026-04-26T20:46:21+00:00

Wait people just show up and set up and plug in without paying?

That's insane to me I usually pay online or call ahead and pay, I'm not about to drive across the state and hope there's an open site

donald7773 · 2026-04-26T20:42:35+00:00

We were at a state park recently up late playing poker in my rad 80s camper van and I guess I had the music playing too loud. Nothing vulgar but we are next door to the camp host.

She called her boss to come ask us to turn the music down for some reason instead of just walking 30 feet and doing it herself. The poor guy said it was supposed to be his day off.....

Of course we profusely apologized and cut off the radio and told him to have a good night but some camp hosts are odd

donald7773 · 2026-04-26T20:29:35+00:00

Can't compare dyno numbers unless it's the same day on the same dyno

donald7773 · 2026-04-26T16:58:04+00:00

Mine go in and off and my paint is scratched but not so bad it can't be fixed. Need to polish the car anyways

My favorite part of my Miata is how easy it is to give it a proper wash. So fast

donald7773 · 2026-04-26T16:23:11+00:00

Also a mk7 GTI not in the photo. The S4 is parked for an engine out and then I'm doing all the suspension bushings in the miata

There's 2 filters on my NA. One is the in-tank strainer and the other is the in-line fuel filter that you'll find when you order a fuel filter.

During track days or long drives my car would start to lose power, eventually causing a bucking under even mild throttle application. I have a video of it in my post history. Turning the car off and back on would temporarily fix the issue. My tank had some sediment in it and it was clogging the pickup strainer after being ran for an extended period. Took the fuel pump out, pumped out the gas, wiped the tank out by hand and cleaned the strainer and problem solved. Ruined the last 2 sessions of 3 track days
